Check nests against your operator’s rules

Takes the nest your software proposes, applies the exception rules your operator works by and prepares the plate plan for review. Your operator approves before anything goes to the machine.

Prepares only. Your operator approves every plate
Problem

Nesting software proposes how parts fit on a plate and handles the constraints it is set up for. The judgment calls are made by hand: customer-supplied plates, orders that need certified material, remnants worth keeping, rush orders. Those rules sit with the operator.

What it does

YP learns the exception rules from recorded sessions of your operator at work. For each batch it checks the proposed nests against those rules and the order data. Where a nest breaks a rule, it changes the job settings and re-runs the nesting, or marks the plate for the operator. Every change is explained.

How it works

See exactly how the work gets done.

The check starts when orders are released. The released orders and the nesting proposal from your software start the run.

YP learns the exception rules from your operator. They come from recorded sessions with your operator, and they are written down and confirmed by the operator.

Every plate in the proposal is checked. Customer-supplied plates, certified material, remnants and due dates are checked against the rules.

YP explains each change to your operator. Every correction names the rule behind it, so the operator reviews the reasons and not only the results.

Your operator approves the plan before anything goes to the machine. Nothing is written to the machine share until that approval is given. Corrections become new rules.

The outcome

Your operator reviews true exceptions instead of re-nesting. The rules stay with the company when people leave.

01
Every plate checked

Against your operator’s exception rules, before review

02
Rules written down

Learned from your operator and confirmed by them

03
Operator approves

Every plate plan, before it reaches the machine

For your numbers

YP checks every nest against your operator’s exception rules, so fewer parts are cut from the wrong plate and usable remnants stay in stock.

How it runs

Designed for enterprise.

Private

Runs on your infrastructure. Drawings, prices, client and claims data never train a model.

Explainable

Not a black box. An AI auditor checks that every task was done as intended and proposes improvements.

Traceable

Every value links to the document, rule or record it came from. Every step is logged. A named person approves anything that leaves the building.

Your systems

Works in your ERP, CargoWise, policy system, GIS and file shares. Nothing is replaced.
